sergio umbria - don juan del chaparro lyrics

Loading...

the story of lopez chirinos
(don juan del chaparro) is this
he was returning from his mine accompanied
because of his dog. he came from the mountain

new roads. reaching the shadow
from the short (tree) he rested. he had
fever and he couldn’t go on anymore. he was
sick for several days, without help

and finally he died. the dog was
defending his carcass from vultures
until the people came. in those
days a young man appeared in el manteco
from upata, looking for work (he was a bricklayer)

a pious person collected money for
order the mason to make the tomb for
the unknown that he had died on the spot
the young man agreed to build it for him. the surprise

he accompanied his work, when when moving the
human remains, he found the riches that
the dead man had brought from the gold mines
and in luck he did not forget to put something on his part

to thank you for the gift. this is how it was built
the mausoleum, where devotees continue with their
cult for the soul of lópez chirinos
(don juan del chaparro)

the ánima del chaparro or purguó is located
at the exit of el manteco+edo. bolivar
a shorty, a lily and a guava give shade
to a little white house (his sanctuary of him), little

but very nice guarded by a post
military (vehicular checkpoint). there is his coffin
and on it an image carved in wood
remember that the deceased was called lópez chirinos

on the altar there are many candles, offerings
a bust of the indian guaicaipuro, a request
asking for the beatification of josé gregorio
hernández, prayers to the powerful hand and

another to the holy trinity. a lot of notebooks
and students’ pencils, on the wall a
make beans, perhaps to give thanks for
a good harvest

don juan del chaparro works with his light
(candle or oil lamp) green but white, chimo, its
his coffee without sugar and his lavagallo (ron or
cheap brandy), when he arrives he says

don juan del chaparro blesses you
in this hour and in this holy moment
he is a very correct old man, he inspires a lot
i respect and he is very wise, he has his character and

if he has to scold you to learn the
lesson because he will do it for your good, it is very
appreciated by those who know him
